Running Club will meet every Tuesday from 2:45-4:00 pm, and we will meet in the hall by the cafeteria line. We are excited about being able to get kids running outside of school! We hope to foster a love of activity and a desire to set and meet goals. We also hope to help students feel prepared for the upcoming events for which they will be able to sign up.
In order to keep the club running smoothly and focused on healthy activity, we have come up with some ways to make sure your child is prepared:
1) Running Club members need to come to Running Club dressed appropriately. (Running shoes and clothes appropriate for running in the weather of the day).
2) Running Club members MUST bring a small snack to eat before running club. It is imperative that they give their bodies fuel before exerting them.
3) Running Club members MUST bring a water bottle with their name on it to EVERY meeting. We will be able to provide coolers with water to refill the bottles if necessary.
In addition, we would like to take a moment to remind you that this club is being run on a strictly volunteer basis. As such, we ask that you be mindful of the time of everyone involved in running club, from the teachers running it, to the parents who have volunteered to help, to the students who are committing themselves to running club. To this end, we are requiring the following:
4) We ask that students make a commitment to running club, and make every effort to attend each meeting (other than when absent from school).
5) Pickup is at 4pm and children will be dismissed at the front of the school. If you need to pickup your child earlier, PLEASE be sure to check in with a teacher before you leave.
We are implementing a "three strikes and you are out" policy regarding requirements 1-5 above. If you have an issue on three separate occasions (be it the same issue three times, or three different issues) you will be dropped from the Running Club roster. We have about 90 students signed up, and we want each of them to get the most that they can out of Running Club. The fewer issues we have to tend to, the more time we will have to have fun running! We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
Thank you so much and we look forward to seeing everyone Tuesday!
